SARA BAREILLES Set for Theater at Madison Square Garden Tonight

MSG Entertainment and Live Nation announced today that multi-platinum selling and Grammy nominated recording artist Sara Bareilles will take the Theater at Madison Square Garden stage tonight, July 19, 2014, as part of her "Little Black Dress" summer tour. Tickets are on sale to the general public on Friday, May 9, 2014 at 11:00AM.

The recently announced summer tour will continue to support Bareilles' highly acclaimed third studio album, "The Blessed Unrest," which recently earned the songstress two Grammy nominations including the coveted Album of the Year and has garnered enthusiastic reviews. USA Today called the work Sara's "most mature and satisfying to date" while the Associated Press hailed "Bareilles knows how to craft a great song... Well Done."
